The used market is flooded with office OEM computers that were cycled out by companies. You can get a second gen i5 with 8GB of RAM for very convenient prices. If you make any money from your coding, you should look about getting at least something like that. You will thank yourself later.
I have been working on such a machine for about 5 months until the current crisis started: a Dell Optiplex, with an i5 2400 and 8GB of RAM (that later got upgraded to 24GB with two extra sticks of 8GB). It is more than capable to run PHPStorm, Photoshop and a bunch of browser tabs.
Take a moment to look on eBay, Facebook market, Gumtree or whatever portal is there in your country for selling and buying stuff. Just because you can't afford a new computer, doesn't mean you have to suffer using an ancient and underpowered one.
